Thinking of installing gutter guards? Don’t know if it is a good idea or not? If you wish to save time, money and stress, gutter guards ARE worth it.
Here are just some of the reasons why that is so:
Reduce Cleaning Efforts
Cleaning out choked gutters is hard work you may not have the time or energy for. Leaves, debris and even dead vermin can cause clogs that can lead to serious water damage in and around your property. You won’t need to worry about any of those things with a gutter guard in place.
A professional cleaning job can cost you more than 00. Depending on the type of gutter you install, you can slash that bill significantly by reducing the frequency of clean-ups. For example, mesh guards are the easiest to clean. You just need to brush off the trash from the top and lift the cover to scoop out anything that was small enough to make it past the barrier. In either case, clean-up won’t be a hassle.
Avoid Infestations
Gutter guards not only block debris from clogging your gutters, they also stop vermin such as mice, squirrels, birds and spiders from breeding in them. Since these also prevent water from pooling, they keep mosquitos at bay.
A clean gutter is not an ideal breeding ground for pests. Plus, the guards will also prevent larger vermin such as possums from gaining access into your roof space.
Prevents Ice Dams
Water trapped in a gutter system can freeze during the winter resulting in ice dams. While gutter guards alone cannot prevent those dams from forming, the can prevent debris from accumulating which can otherwise cause them.
Prevents Fires
If you live in an area that is prone to forest fires, your home needs extra protection which gutter guards can give. Dry debris in gutter guards can catch fire easily. So even if your home is some distance away from the fire, the embers can ignite that debris and cause a fire. If you are asleep when that happens, you may lose more than you bargained for.
A metal guard can block embers and since it also blocks trash, the fire won’t have anything to ignite.
Improve Your Home’s Value
If you want to buy a home, would you pick one that has gutter guards or one that doesn’t? The answer is obvious. Why would anyone go for a house that doesn’t have this extra protection in place?
Similarly, if you want to sell your home without gutter guards, you may have to reduce the price. No one wants to work on a home they just bought. They want to move in and enjoy themselves for a few years or months before repairs and maintenance are unavoidable.
